“You must allow yourself to know what you know, and feel what you feel.” This is New Orleans. The past never stays buried. After an abusive relationship and the death of her beloved uncle, Penny finds herself in New Orleans, embroiled in a murderous love story. In search of something she can’t identify, she discovers things aren’t always as they seem. Somewhere between the French Quarter and the bayous, she finds the answers she’s looking for … And some she’s not. Now she must uncover the truth between the lies. In Molly Jo Realy’s breakout novel, very little is as it seems, including Penny’s self-identity. This southern romantic location-mystery set in the Big Easy is filled with all that makes New Orleans a wonderful character herself. Grab a beignet or a warm bowl of gumbo, and follow Penny on her journey to find the truth about her old life, her new friends, and the pieces of herself she needs to reclaim.
